Changes

The cover-art signup strip shown to anonymous visitors on the public pages (Explore, tags directory and tag pages, sources directory and source pages, squads directory, users, best-of, watercooler, world and public profiles) now carries the sticky auth banner's signup stack instead of a Sign up → / Log in pair:

Continue with Google as the one solid primary and Continue with GitHub as a fill, side by side at the medium size, with Continue with email as a text link and Already have an account? Log in under them. This is AuthOptions in the singlePrimary style the banner already uses, so the two surfaces share one CTA hierarchy.
Copy and the stack are centred over the cover art, which keeps its original crop. Copy stays the new tab control's ("Unlock the full daily.dev experience" / "Log in to pick up where you left off.").
A feathered backdrop-blur pocket behind the bottom links plus a bottom scrim keep the small text legible over the art. Opacity modifiers use arbitrary values (/[0.9]) because the theme's opacity scale has no matching steps and the numeric forms emit no CSS.
Social providers run OAuth inline like the banner does; email and log in hand off to the auth modal at the matching screen.
AuthOptions gains an inlineProviders flag that lays the social providers out in a row; every other surface keeps the stacked list.
The cover art chrome is extracted into HijackingCoverCard so the extension's new tab strip keeps its centred layout untouched.

Events

No new events. The strip keeps its impression on explore strip, the log in link keeps its click on explore strip, and provider clicks log the auth form's own signup provider events with the onboarding trigger, as on the banner.

Experiment

No new experiments.

Manual Testing

ExploreSignupStrip spec updated and passing (9 tests); webapp and extension suites green.
Preview: open /tags or /sources logged out at laptop and tablet widths.

…uth stack The anonymous cover strip on Explore, tags, sources, squads, users, best-of, watercooler, world and profile pages offered a Sign up / Log in pair that only opened the modal. The sticky auth banner already converts with a single-primary stack (Google primary, GitHub fill, email link, log in link), so the strip now renders that same AuthOptions stack beside the copy, laid out like the banner: copy on the left, auth column on the right from laptop, stacked and centred on tablet. The cover art chrome moves into HijackingCoverCard so the extension's strip keeps its centred layout while this one lays out its own content. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The palette's opacity scale is empty, so raw-pepper-90/90 style modifiers never emit a rule and the gradient is invalid at computed-value time. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
